Brian, the problem occurred while I was running Ubuntu centralized update. I will try to reproduce by uninstalling reinstalling the package.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.  Reviewing your log files attached to this bug report it
seems that a package failed to install due to a segmentation fault in
application being used by the package installation process.
Unfortunately, this bug report isn't very useful in its current state
and a crash report would be much more useful.  Could you try recreating
this issue by enabling apport to catch the crash report 'sudo service
apport start force_start=1' and then trying to install the same package
again?  This process will create a new bug report so I am marking this
one as Invalid.  Thanks again for helping out!

** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Tags added: package-install-segfault
